In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: ts2020: fix null-ptr-deref in ts2020_probe() KASAN reported a null-ptr-deref issue when executing the following command: # echo ts2020 0x20 > /sys/bus/i2c/devices/i2c-0/new_device KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000010-0x0000000000000017] CPU: 53 UID: 0 PID: 970 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 6.12.0-rc2+ #24 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009) RIP: 0010:ts2020_probe+0xad/0xe10 [ts2020] RSP: 0018:ffffc9000abbf598 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffffffffc0714809 RDX: 0000000000000002 RSI: ffff88811550be00 RDI: 0000000000000010 RBP: ffff888109868800 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: fffff52001577eb6 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffffc9000abbff50 R12: ffffffffc0714790 R13: 1ffff92001577eb8 R14: ffffffffc07190d0 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007f95f13b98c0(0000) GS:ffff888149280000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000555d2634b000 CR3: 0000000152236000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Call Trace: <TASK> ts2020_probe+0xad/0xe10 [ts2020] i2c_device_probe+0x421/0xb40 really_probe+0x266/0x850 ... The cause of the problem is that when using sysfs to dynamically register an i2c device, there is no platform data, but the probe process of ts2020 needs to use platform data, resulting in a null pointer being accessed. Solve this problem by adding checks to platform data.

Each milestone comes from a different source, so gaps between them are gaps in what those sources publish, not evidence that nothing happened. EPSS history for this CVE holds 3 points from 2026-11-05, tracked daily from 2026-11-05; earlier points are weekly, which dates a spike to within a week. Peak probability 0.2% on 2026-11-05.
Check whether a specific version is affected →
What each source publishes about which product versions carry this vulnerability, kept as written rather than merged. Absence here means no source has published applicability data, not that nothing is affected.
Blind spot. No public detection — verify by version/patch. Nothing in the monitored scanner, IDS, SIEM or offensive-tool collections references this CVE, so exposure has to be established from asset inventory and patch level rather than from a signature.
Coverage across public collections only: Nuclei and OpenVAS NVT (scan);
Snort and Suricata ET Open (network); Sigma and YARA (host/SIEM);
Metasploit, Exploit-DB, public GitHub repositories and NVD exploit references (exploit). Absence
here means nothing public was found, not that detection is impossible.
GitHub PoC repositories are collected automatically by
PoC-in-GitHub (CC0) and filtered to repositories that are
still online, contain code, and are starred or at least two weeks old. They are
still not vetted: some are fakes and some are malware. Treat
them as evidence that code was published, not as code to run.
NVD exploit references are links NVD's analysts tag as exploits; they confirm
an exploit was referenced but carry no date. This product uses data from the
NVD but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.
OpenVAS coverage derives from the Greenbone Community Feed, made available
under the Open Database License (ODbL) v1.0;
its individual Vulnerability Tests are licensed
GNU GPL v2.
No exploit-tool sightings recorded for this CVE.
Metasploit is dated by the first commit of the module file, Exploit-DB by its publication date, and GitHub repositories by their creation date. GitHub PoC repositories are filtered (still online, contain code, starred or at least two weeks old) but not vetted: some are fakes and some are malware, so they show that code was published, not that it works or is safe to run. Evidence tiers are explained on the About page.
Where the distribution has shipped a fix, and in which version. Green means the release has resolved it, amber that it is still open. Data from the Debian Security Tracker, used under Debian's MIT / GPLv2+ terms. Debian is upstream of several other distributions, so a fix here often precedes theirs.

BOD 26-04 replaced the single KEV deadline of BOD 22-01 with four inputs: whether the asset is publicly exposed, KEV status, whether exploitation is automatable, and technical impact. Exposure belongs to each agency's asset, not to the CVE, so both outcomes are shown. Automatable and technical impact come from the CISA assessment above. Days are calendar days; for KEV entries the clock starts on the date it was added, and otherwise when the agency identifies the vulnerability on an asset. Agencies make the final exposure call asset by asset, and may set shorter timelines.
Defensive techniques inferred by MITRE D3FEND from the underlying weakness (CWE-476) — general hardening and detection guidance for this weakness class, not a vendor patch for this specific CVE.
